“Minneapolis based Duffy & Partners designed this beautiful packaging for Thymes’ Lavender brand. This collection includes bath salts, bodywash, and hand lotion. The subtle yet luscious play on the various shades of lavender evokes warmth, beauty and luxury for the senses.”

“This is a redesigned for General Electric high-end light bulbs. The package is designed with recycled material to promote sustainability. Information is cleanly organized into a label system to reduce printing over the whole package.”

This elegangt, copy driven packaging concept is the work of South African based designer Marcel Buerkle. The shape and cleanliness of the design almost gives it a bit of a high end perfume look and feel.

“The brief was to brand and design packaging for Organi-yum. The brief stressed the need for packaging that suited its organic style. This is a Rendering of the yoghurt design, a PLA plastic (biodegradable plastic) film design with a tear top and zip lock to re-seal.”

“The idea behind this design was to use as many handmade elements as possible. The only thing on this that is not handmade is the surgeon general’s warning on the back label. Other than that, everything from the shape of the labels, to the depiction of the mythical “Black Howler” is hand done.”

“The Brief: When The Strauss group fixed the intention of launching a series of consumer products aimed at men, they requested that we devise a marketing concept for the new products of ‘MUST’, starting with the packaging that will project a strong difference from competitors products on the shelf.

The Solution: ‘Must – Men Collection’ – chewing gum for men only. We chose a collection of illustrated Presenters: male types that we all know and admire – go-getters, women love these men and boys copy them. We put them on metal containers which are especially masculine and gave to each presenter a stage for his male life philosophies.”
